Brekumanso, (E/R), Sept. 12, GNA- Ghanaians have been called upon to exhibit honesty in all their doings to promote national development. The call was made by the Rev. David Owusu-Ansah, Suhum District Pastor of the Assemblies of God, in a sermon during the induction of Pastor Yaw Oppon Boadi in-charge of the Redeemer Assemblies of God Church at Brekumanso, near Asamankese.

Rev. Owusu-Ansah spoke on the theme: "That a man be found faithful", and regretted that "what is missing in the society and the church are truthfulness, honesty and faithfulness".

He said these virtues were now needed than any period in the nation's history in order to transform Ghana.

Rev. Owusu-Ansah asked pastors to be faithful and be shining examples to all people, saying, "a Pastor's stewardship would be judged by God and if it was done right, it would be richly rewarded." On HIV/AIDS, he said if couples would be faithful to their partners they would avoid contracting the disease.

He asked the unmarried ones to be also faithful so that they would be free from the disease.
